Quotes23

  • Vianne: [to the Comte de Reynaud] Ah, good morning. Can I interest you in some nipples of Venus?
  • Vianne: And these are for your husband. Unrefined cacao nips from Guatemala, to awaken the passions.
  • Yvette Marceau: Psshh. You've obviously never met my husband.
  • Vianne: Well, you've obviously never tried these.
  • Roux: I should probably warn ya: you make friends with us, you make enemies with everyone else.
  • Vianne: Is that a promise?
  • Roux: It's a guarantee.
  • Yvette Marceau: Do you have more of those bean thingies, please?
  • Vianne: Oh, sure. Um... How many do you want?
  • Yvette Marceau: How many have you got?
  • Comte de Reynaud: Rumor has it you are harbouring Madame Muscat. Is that true?
  • Vianne: You make her sound like a fugitive.
  • Comte de Reynaud: She *is* a fugitive. From her marriage vows, which have been sanctified by God.
  • Vianne: Josephine? Come out here a minute. Let His Radiance have a look at you, hm?
  • [shows the Comte the ugly bruise on Josephine's forehead]
  • Vianne: Is that sanctified enough for you? It's not the first time.
  • Comte de Reynaud: I am truly sorry. You should have come to me. Your husband will be made to repent for this.
  • Josephine Muscat: Tell him to repent on someone else's head.
  • Vianne: What do you see in it?
  • Armande Voizin: Not a damned thing.
  • Vianne: Come on, it's a game. What do you see?
  • Armande Voizin: I see a cranky old woman too tired to play games.
  • Vianne: Hmm. I've got just the thing for you.
  • Roux: How's the door?
  • Vianne: It squeaks.
  • Roux: Does it?
  • [Anouk has come home from school upset]
  • Vianne: Anouk, just tell me what happened.
  • Anouk: Are you Satan's helper?
  • Vianne: Well, it... it's not easy, being different.
  • Anouk: Why can't we go to church?
  • Vianne: Well, you can if you want... but it won't make things easier.
  • Anouk: Why can't you wear black shoes like the other mothers?
  • Vianne: Things could be different for you, Josephine. Serge doesn't run the world.
  • Josephine Muscat: He might as well.
  • Vianne: Is that what you believe?
  • Josephine Muscat: I know it.
  • Vianne: Oh. Well, then it must be... must be true. My mistake.
  • Luc Clairmont: Grandmother, bonjour.
  • Armande Voizin: I, um... would you like a cup of, uh...
  • Luc Clairmont: No, no thank you. I'm just here to, uh... do a portrait.
  • Armande Voizin: Whose?
  • Vianne: Yours, actually. Is the light okay where she's sitting?
  • Vianne: Would you care... would you care to buy something special for your lady friend?
  • Guillaume Blerot: Lady friend?
  • Vianne: Mm-hmm, the lovely woman your dog was so fond of.
  • Guillaume Blerot: [smiles] Oh.
  • Vianne: Her favorite is chocolate seashells, that's my guess.
  • Guillaume Blerot: Oh, no, I mustn't. Madame Audel is in mourning for her husband.
  • Vianne: Oh. I'm sorry. When did he pass away?
  • Guillaume Blerot: The war. German grenade.
  • Vianne: Oh, I see. Well, it's been fifteen years since the war, so surely...
  • Guillaume Blerot: No, not that war. Monsieur Audel was killed on January the 12th, 1917. It was quite a blow to Madame Audel.
  • Vianne: Apparently so.
  • Vianne: I have two announcements. Number one, if you enjoyed what you ate here, you're going to love my chocolate festival on Sunday.
  • Armande Voizin: Advertise on your own time. What's for dessert?
  • Vianne: That brings me to number two. It is my duty to announce, that there is no dessert here tonight.
  • [guests sound disappointed]
  • Vianne: Because it's on Roux's boat.
  • [uncomfortable silence]
  • Armande Voizin: Any complaints, see me.
  • Armande Voizin: Your cinnamon looks rancid.
  • Vianne: Well, it's not cinnamon, it's a special kind of chili pepper.
  • Armande Voizin: Chili pepper in hot chocolate? Psh.
  • Vianne: Mm-hm. It'll give you a lift.
  • Roux: How does Anouk feel about it?
  • Vianne: What?
  • Roux: All the moving around.
  • Vianne: Oh, she's fine. She handles it beautifully, she makes friends easily, she's such an unusual...
  • [looks at Roux]
  • Vianne: She hates it.
  • [on the verge of tears]
  • Vianne: She hates it.
  • [Roux draws closer and kisses her]
  • Roux: [referring to the broken glass on her door] You know I can fix that if you like. Not with glass, but I can make a nice strong one out of wood.
  • Vianne: That's nice of you, but I insist on paying you for your work.
  • Roux: Well, that makes two of us then.
  • Josephine Muscat: If you leave, everything will go back to the way it was.
  • Vianne: Everything *is* the way it was.
  • Josephine Muscat: Not for me!
  • Vianne: Don't you ever think about belonging somewhere?
  • Roux: The price is too high. You end up caring what people expect of you.
  • Armande Voizin: Sure you didn't put booze in that?
  • Vianne: Something better.
  • Armande Voizin: Perhaps you should give it to my daughter. Melt that chilly disposition of hers.
  • Vianne: Things could be different for you, Josephine. Serge doesn't rule the world.
  • Josephine Muscat: He might as well.
  • Vianne: Is that what you believe?
  • Josephine Muscat: I know it.
  • Vianne: Oh, well, then it... it must be true. My mistake.
  • Armande Voizin: She won't let me see my grandson. I'm cut off from him.
  • Vianne: Why is that? Armande, why is that?
  • Armande Voizin: Oh, I'm a bad influence. 'Cause I don't like her treating him like a trained poodle. I swear, that boy doesn't piss without her permission.
